AuthorTopic: Piers Morgan Slams Ringo (Read 10761 times)

well i think its a load... it probably got blown out of the water ringo is a very nice and polite person why the hell should he spend the rest of his life signing auto's? he politely said on his site that after so adn so date he would stop signing why can't they respect the man and listen to his wishes? I sent in a photo a few days before the dead line and recieved it signed a month or so later he's a great guy so don't believe this bs media conspiracy.

I understand that you can sometimes get tired of signing autographs if you've been doing it every day for 48 years. And of course Ringo isn't public property and he isn't some circus monkey who's obliged to do whatever any stranger wants him to do.

But than again, I think it's really really lame if he just doesn't sign autographs period. Wouldn't it be amazing if you could make people really happy by doing something as simple as just signing your name on a piece of paper? And besides that, celebrities shouldn't forget that their fans pay their bills.

just let the man retire and write his music... he won't come out in public if people are a**holes too him moaning because he wont do them favors over and over... maybe if you guys weren't off selling your autographs I kept mine unlike half the people who get them it seems.

But he hasn't retired and he does come out in public because he's flogging a product. And as I think TK said earlier Ringo relies on a small group of hardcore fans to buy his stuff. 8 spent one week in the charts at 91. Alienate them and it's bye-byes. And for whatever reason Ringo obviously still wants to be out there.If he does retire, then what you said is fair enough. But until he does he has to realise he can't have it both ways.

Dude, calm down. I've never asked Ringo for his autograph (hey, why would I if I'm not even a fan, huh?), I've never had his autograph and if I would've had it I wouldn't have sold it. So don't lose any sleep over it, OK?

and if i have to sit around dealing with people moaning about him and debating when he's going to die then im not going to stick around because I only go where it's peaceful... many other forums on the web that love me and show love instead of hate so there you go.

People like to discuss different things. Where is the hate? Is it anything you don't agree with? This is a discussion forum and people are free to discuss what interests them. And obviously, not all of it is going to be everyone's cup of tea. This is a VERY peaceful forum because most of its members respect that fact and respect the opinions of others whether they agree or not. There are all kinds of fans and it's a bit presumptuous to to assume someone is not a fan because they might have a word of criticism here or there. That's a bit simple.

All I said was that I thought that Ringo probably could've been a bit nicer to this one particular fan that didn't get an autograph. I never said he's a bad guy or anything and I'm sure he isn't.

Like Sondra said, I don't see where the hate is that you're talking about. You got a few sarcastic comments from me, but what you do expect? You come here on this board as a newbie and for no reason whatsoever you start accusing people of selling autographs on eBay (I never had Ringo's autograph and I don't even have an eBay account) and of not being true fans.
